P90X: when doubt starts to appear

Day 30 has just passed. I'm about to end Week 5 of the P90X challenge. To be honest I'm quite frustrated with myself. I took my Day 30 picture hoping to see a better picture. The result was depressing. Instead of achieving some tone in my body, I found myself more bloated. My arms look bloated and my tummy obviously bloated. The time alone that I spent doing my exercise on a daily basis (ok maybe I missed a few..), the muscle soreness I had to endure and the hope that at least something, that I can see some physical changes that will encourage me to continue and finish the challenge.. it just wasn't there.

I started this P90X challenge in order to finally achieve the body that I wanted, to lose the flabs, to to gain some definition of my body and to be able to go topless and be proud of it. I'm used to starting things and when things get difficult or ging nowhere then I stop. Is this challenge going to end up on the dumspter? It's still another 60 days to go. Can I go on no matter how I feel about ? Or do I quit.

No. I can't give up now. I will stay the course. I made a commitment to myself to see myself in 90 days with P90X. It will be struggle to keep reminding myself everyday to do this. It's not going to be easy from here on. But I don't want to analyze it. I will just bring it!
